KYOTO DIRT   05 May 2024
 
GOING: G

Allowance Race 1900m

Track: FIRM      

Expecting Daimei Seven to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. DEEP REBORN (7) was in contention on the corner and finished 0.8 lengths from the winner in second when resuming last start at Chukyo Dirt over this distance. Has found the frame in all four starts at this journey, including two wins. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Leading contender. WINNING GRACE (5) was quickly into stride over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt last time and went on to score by 1.5 lengths. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Must raise the bar but he has the ability to test this field. Grade 3 placegetter RED BELLE AME (1) returned from a spell seven weeks ago when he was beaten 5.5 lengths into fourth over 1900m at Chukyo Dirt. Beautifully placed and is sure to make amends. JOSHO POWER (6) finished second last time over 2000m at Hanshin Dirt, beaten a neck. Will trim down following recent racing. Capable of another bold effort.
